Principal's Message
Thanks for a great first week! We spent time learning new routines, building community, and exploring our new spaces. It has been so much fun seeing the excitement and joy of the boys and girls each and every day.
This summer the OASD school board approved a new 5-year strategic plan. A main goal is for all OASD schools to significantly exceed expectations on the Wisconsin School Report Card by 2024. To achieve this outcome, improved performance on the Wisconsin Student Assessment System (Forward Exam for elementary schools) and supporting standardized assessments is required. As we begin back to school assessments, please know several strategic adjustments were made to the District’s 2019-20 Student Assessment Schedule to facilitate our work. Two notable elementary changes include:
- Designating spring MAP testing optional at grades 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
- Utilizing FAST earlyReading as the required literacy screener at 4K, 5K, and 1st grade. This replaces MAP testing for 5K and 1st grade. Reading MAP testing will begin in the winter of 2nd grade for our students beginning this school year.
Overall, the 2019-20 Assessment Schedule reduces the amount of time spent on discretionary testing while perming staff and students to focus on strategic priorities.
